A unique experienceBranksome's gorgeous new Christie-Pepall Dining Hall in the Athletics and Wellness Centre provides healthy, delicious meals at breakfast, lunch and dinner. During the school day, the residence students eat with the day students on campus in the Rainbow Room or in the dining hall.

The Residence students' programs provide additional leadership and academic opportunities for the girls. Together, Residence students and staff create a unique boarding experience that promotes bonding and personal growth—a community within the caring community that is Branksome Hall.
